Dogs seized by the RCIPS and DoA (file photo) (CNS): A pack of vicious stray dogs that has been plaguing communities around the West Bay Road, from Snug Harbour to Camana Bay and now along Seven Mile Beach, attacking people and killing pets, is still on the loose, even though several dogs have been rounded up by the Department of Agriculture (DoA). Last week officials from the DoA and the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service met with concerned residents in the area, including Planning Minister Joey Hew (George Town North), whose family’s pet cat was killed by these feral dogs. Over the last few weeks reports have been made about the animals attacking kids on their way to Cayman International School, people being badly bitten and several pet cats being killed. CNS learned Wednesday that another two cats were killed this week, one of them at Britannia, where these increasingly wild dogs have apparently made their territory. A pet cat was also killed at Poinsettia Condos on Seven Mile

Viruses plague bacteria just as viruses like influenza plague humans. Some of the largest of these so-called bacteriophages have now been found in the human gut, where they periodically devastate bacteria just as seasonal outbreaks of flu lay humans low, according to a new study led by UC Berkeley scientists. Prevotella copri, a type of bacteria found in the human gut, primarily in people who eat a high-fiber, low-fat diet. The largest bacteriophages ever found in humans prey on Prevotella bacteria. (iStock image) These “megaphages” — which have genomes about 10 times larger than the average phage and twice as big as any phage previously found in humans — were found in the human intestinal tract, but only from humans who eat a non-Western, high-fiber, low-fat diet. Tellingly, they were also found in the guts of baboons and a pig, demonstrating that phages — which can carry genes that affect human health — can move between humans and animals and perhaps carry disease. “Phage are

A nurse tends to typhoid fever patients gathered in the hallway of the crowded Jose Rizal hospital in Calamba, Laguna, the Philippines, on Saturday, March 8, 2008. The Philippines' worst typhoid outbreak in a decade shows no sign of ending as authorities try to pinpoint the cause of the infection that's killed one person and sickened more than 2,000 others. Photographer: Enrique Soriano/Bloomberg News BLOOMBERG NEWS If you find yourself sick with flu-like symptoms, fever and chills, abdominal pain, a rash, and severe confusion, you might have typhus. Or is it typhoid? No wonder you're feeling confused. Until the mid-1800s, doctors didn't even realize these were two different diseases, because the symptoms -- and the conditions that spawned outbreaks -- looked so similar. (You probably don't have either one, if you live in the U.S. But for the sake of argument, here's a handy guide.) Typhus  Typhus is the unpleasant work of bacteria called Rickettsia ty

Treatment for SIBO may vary  depending on the underlying causes . For example, surgical intervention may be warranted if your doctor believes there is a structural issue in the intestines. In other cases, a targeted antibiotic may be prescribed to reduce and control the amount of bacteria present in the small intestines. In some cases, functional medicine practitioners recommend herbal antibiotics , including extracts from oregano, goldenseal, uva ursi , and garlic. Diet is an important component of any SIBO treatment plan as well. Everyone's gut is different, so there is no single SIBO diet, but generally,  a SIBO diet is similar to a low-FODMAP diet . FODMAP (an acronym that stands for F ermentable O ligo-, D i-, M onosaccharides A nd P olyols) are types of carbohydrates that can be difficult to digest, including lactose, grains, and sweeteners. Diets low in FODMAPs have been shown to alleviate IBS symptoms that also plague SIBO suffers, like bloating, pain, and constipation.

Three months ago, shares of  Silicon Laboratories  ( NASDAQ:SLAB )  fell after the company posted strong third-quarter results  but followed with a seemingly conservative forward outlook because of what management described as near-term macroeconomic turbulence.  With the release of its fourth-quarter results this morning, however, the fabless semiconductor specialist confirmed even that cautious guidance was too optimistic. With the stock down 14% today in response, let's dig deeper to see how Silicon Labs capped 2018, and what investors should be watching in the coming quarters. Image source: Getty Images.

Latest Ripple News Unlike most crypto assets, Ripple and XRP has a landing scene. RippleNet, Ripple’s solutions and the native currency, XRP are active and in use by financial institutions as well as payment processors. And what’s more, governments, high net-worth investors and regulators believe blockchain based solutions as those riding on the Ripple Ledger could be disruptive. Even so, there seem to be a “cold war” in the crypto-verse. Read: Research: Two Thirds of All Laundered Crypto Washed Through Exchanges From coin market cap trackers, XRP is the second most valuable coin with a market cap of $11,866 million at the time of writing but as one Redditor put it”: “ many entities that seem to hate XRP and try to avoid saying its name like the plague ”. This is after he found out that XRP was not listed at the Cobinhood Exchange ’s help page even though the exchange has the coin on offer: “I could just chalk it up to being an accident (and it very well may be), but they are ju

UMass turned the ball over 20 times in the losing effort Close Photo by Judith Gibson-Okunieff Photo by Judith Gibson-Okunieff Photo by Judith Gibson-Okunieff By Dan McGee, Collegian Staff January 30, 2019 Filed under Archives , Sports , Women's Basketball Close Modal Window Close Modal Window It’s no secret that in the game of basketball, controlling the turnover battle often plays a deciding factor into who wins a ballgame. For the Massachusetts women’s basketball team, turnovers largely prevented them from pulling off an upset victory over Virginia Commonwealth on Wednesday, falling to the Rams (15-6, 7-1 Atlantic 10) 52-48. The Minutewomen (11-10, 3-4 A-10) suffered from 20 turnovers in the losing effort, compared to just 12 from the VCU side. Plaguing UMass was the preventability of many of its turnovers, as the Minutewomen committed five traveling violations in the loss. Known for their defensive prowess, the Rams certainly brought it with them on

From January 25 to 28, 2019, multiple organizations, including Discover Financial Services , Verity Medical Foundation , Verity Health Systems and Allen Chern LLP , have made routine filings in accordance with California state law, reporting cybersecurity incidents that may or may not be data breaches, according to the office of the Attorney General  (AG).   The AG’s website notes, “In some cases the organization that sent the notice is not the one that experienced the breach,” and each of the companies that have filed in the past five days has asserted the information was compromised as a result of some unauthorized activity of a third-party vendor. “Discover was not breached in this incident and our information and data systems were not compromised. This incident was the result of a merchant data compromise, and not the result of any action by Discover or an intrusion of our customer information systems,” a Discover spokesperson wrote in an email. “We re-issued cards out of an

The English Mastiff is a gentle giant of the canine world, known for its calm demeanour and gentle, loving nature. Not these Hull miserabilists, however. Picking up where 2017’s Bork EP left off, Plague explodes like a grind-sludge Molotov cocktail; its vision of humanity as disease burning with fury, anguish and frustration. From the roller-coaster downward spiral of Hellcircle, through Bubonic’s ear-shattering powerviolence, to 69-second nightmare Brainbleed, there’s nowhere to hide, before nine-minute closer Black Death blots out any last remaining light with a rising tide of apocalyptic doom. Shades of grind pioneers Napalm Death , aggro-tastic U.S. brutalists Nails and the swampy, kaleidoscopic acid-trip imagery of Crowbar bleed through everywhere, and within the churning pestilence and pervasive darkness, Mastiff’s message stands out in big letters: they’re fucked, and we are too.

In 1518, Strasbourg, 400 men and women danced until collapsing from exhaustion. These "dancing plagues" occurred throughout the Middle Ages. Similar spontaneous, mass compulsions have occurred throughout history, some very recently. What are they, and why do they happen? On a July day in 1518, a woman named Frau Troffea began to dance in the streets of Strasbourg, part of the Holy Roman Empire in modern-day France. There wasn't all that much to do for entertainment in medieval Strasbourg, so this diversion was met with enthusiasm by passers-by. Frau Troffea was spinning, twisting, jumping, all without music. It was entertaining to watch, until it wasn't. Six days later, Frau Troffea was still going. She hadn't slept or eaten. Day or night, rain or shine, Frau Troffea couldn't stop dancing. This alone would have been cause for alarm, but suddenly people began to join her in her relentless dance. At first it was a crowd of 34. Then, by the end of the mo

MARLBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - The moms meet in a parking lot overlooking the little funeral home and watch mourners drifting toward the chapel doors - a familiar scene, beginning again. Cheryl Juaire taps nervously on her steering wheel. "Are we ready?" she asks the two other mothers leaning into the window of her SUV. The wake starting inside is for a stranger, another young man consumed by the great American plague. These women drove nearly two hours to shepherd his mother into their club, its thousands of members all bound by the same hell: They are parents of the dead from addiction, tasked with the unnatural act of burying their children at a rate unprecedented in modern American history. "That mom gave birth to that child," Cheryl says. "When those doors close today, and they put her son in the ground, it's not the end for her. It's just the beginning." Cheryl's own son, Corey Merrill, overdosed on heroin at 23 years old in 2011, just a

The love-hate relationship that journalists have with Twitter is turning mostly to hate, with an ample serving of self-loathing . Even some of the most prominent posters are now blaming Twitter — or, more precisely, their addiction to the site — for many of the ills that plague the profession. But there's an interesting twist here that's gotten less attention: Is Twitter corrupting journalism or exposing its utter unfairness? Try a thought experiment: If every media type in America quit Twitter tomorrow, would journalism be that much better? Or would its deep-seated problems — many of which existed before Jack Dorsey's network started gaining traction in 2008 — continue unabated? Given Twitter's strengths — as a forum for insta-coverage and debate, self-promotion and link-sharing that opens the national dialogue to many millions — the sudden disdain of its media users is remarkable. So what's behind these stop-me-before-I-tweet-again cries, fueled most recent

Our local water departments add fluoride to our water while promising that drinking fluoride is safe and improves dental health. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) affirms that while fluoride does work in toothpaste (topically), it does almost nothing to improve dental health when administered systemically (by drinking it). Decades ago, the WHO reported that improved dental health, world wide, over the past half century was and remains the same with or without adding fluoride to drinking water. At the same time research, now confirmed, began to expose the truly frightening danger that fluoride, a proven neurotoxin, poses to fetuses and infants. So, while most of Europe admitted error and eliminated fluoridation, what did America do? The CDC, ignoring evidence, informed consent and the hippocratic oath proclaimed fluoride in public water "one of the great public health achievements in the 20th century." But wait! In 2017, the first U.S. government funded study of

NJ death metal band Disma have parted ways with vocalist Craig Pillard. They write : The decision was mutual and the reasons are no secret. We will move on and finish writing the next album and complete it when a suitable replacement is found. We thank you all for your support over the years! They don’t elaborate on the reasons, but it is “no secret” that Pillard has come under fire in the past for releasing nazi-glorifying records under the name Sturmfuhrer, and Disma were removed from Chaos In Tejas 2012 and Netherlands Deathfest 2015 after other bands threatened to drop off. In a 2002 interview about his Sturmfuhrer project, Pillard spoke about “Jewry” and Hitler: Your imagery takes on WWII era themes with a strong emphasis on Germany… what are your thoughts on the last of ‘the great wars’? I think Germany was defending itself from the plague of world usury/Jewry and was unfortunately beaten with the help of world Jewry, between Amerika, CCCP and Britain “OUR” kind was s

Huge pods of bluebottle jellyfish have been wreaking havoc at a Raglan beach stinging dozens of unsuspecting oceangoers. A Surf Life Saving Northern Region report said bluebottles had "plagued" Raglan's Ngarunui Beach on Auckland Anniversary Day, requiring minor first-aid assistance for 15 people. Raglan Surf Life Saving Club patrol captain Isaac van der Vossen said there could have been at least 30 people stung through the day. "We had guards swimming out the back saying there were huge pods of them, some with maybe a couple hundred jellyfish." Advertisement Most of the people seeking assistance were younger and had a bit a of a fright. "It is quite painful, but it can be more the fright of it, while others won't even mention it, and will think it is all just part of it - mother nature." Treatment involved removing the "stingers" and placing the affected area under hot water - as hot as the person could handle. "That seem

St. Bernard of Montjoux (aka Bernard of Menthon) was an 11th-century priest in the Aosta region of the Italian Alps. Because traversing the mountains was a grueling and potentially dangerous endeavor, Bernard commissioned the construction of two hospices where travelers and pilgrims on their way to Rome and the Holy Land could find food, shelter and treatment for injuries sustained on their journeys. The strong, brave dogs that helped monks at the hospices rescue endangered travelers were named in his honor, and today St. Bernard is considered the patron saint of mountaineers and skiers.
